The XING UX team is growing and we’re currently looking for Mid-Level/Senior Interaction Designers, available at the soonest possible starting date. The position is based at our headquarters in Hamburg, Germany.

I'm an experienced web/graphic designer making a lateral move into
the User Interface realm and have just landed an opportunity to
design a small but important CMS system for a client.
My question is: is there an expected number of versions or examples
of user interface visual design solutions/directions clients expect?
In the graphic design realm the expectation was to offer three
solutions and then further develop the chosen one.
Does anyone have any experiences to offer or guidelines they've
found particularly helpful? I have to offer a proposal to the client
in a few days.
Thank you!

Did you ever wish that you could have real threaded discussions about
IxD? Did you ever wish that ixda.org could provide you with a better
tool for understanding the conversations surrounding specific
topics?

Hi,
I'm in a successful start up (meaning there are real paid customers
for a real product.) So far I am the only UX person and I need to
educate the culture here on UX skill levels similar to management
tracks and technical tracks. Does any one have examples from their
current or past company that they could share?
